- Our part two coverage of Eyes on Design features some unique Corvettes that were Designed for Speed this year.
- Next, we look at the extraordinary history of fiberglass before the Corvette. Then we look at Corvette fiberglass products by Corvette Image that can take your Corvette to the amazing next level.
- Looking back at the history of the 1969 Greenwood Factory L88 Racer (often referred to as “The Star-Spangled Corvette”) we learn about John Greenwood and his contracts with BF Goodrich as well as some of its awesome racing victories.

- In our Corvette Rear Vues, we are starting a look at the 1990 Vintage Ads. There weren’t many print advertisements for the 1990 Vette but the ones that were there are pretty cool to see!
- Corvette Racing is always very popular. In our Keepin’ Track of Corvette Racing column, we look at Corvettes at Monza, the SRO GT America Series at the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix in Nashville, and what happened to Callaway at Road America.
- Model Scene takes a look at tiny Corvettes this month. We also look at models from Jimmy Toys, Ertl, and some model Corvettes that were available at Rite Aid and CVS stores this year.
